Date joined and timeline:
Joined July 2017.
Got artist on 24th September 2017 and foreman on 28th February .
Resigned from foreman due to failure to meet my own expectations in the number of jobs I could run on May 6th 2018.
Resigned from artist and canceled my ongoing enforcer application on 6th September 2018 to further focus on schoolwork.
Jobs and Plotbuilds:
- A lot of DA jobs in GT, CT, and MT: I now have about 11 houses in GT, a similar amount in CT, and one in MT.
- DA Sewage jobs: Designing and building of the main sewer level together with BWOT and now with ryttyr. Building the upper sewer level together with Pat and Rob.
- DA port contest together with Superlolster360, Slowlex, PhoenixGaming108, Niki710, LegololGreenleaf and Redbarron2022.
- DA ship contest together with CaptainDarkri
- 2 Bed replacing jobs in The shire and Minas Tirith.
- About 7 smoothing plots in Belfallas + one huge plot (25000 blocks)
- (River beddings job in Ithilien)
Themed-builds:
- I did the theme project 'the Black gate of Mordor'. as you can see, my main target was to come up with a solid and good looking wall design. 25/08 - Now I included extra screens that show the 2 wall towers (which I just finished), and parts of the interior.
- I did try to do the Farmstead themebuild to, but I built a ship instead (cause I didn't realize what themebuilds)
- Black Gate of Mordor
- Ship (farmstead)
- I recently (30/08/2017) did the 'Rhosgobel' themebuild, which was a lot of fun to do. I used this themebuild to show of my terrainsmoothing skills ones more, and I even have to thank Super for the great idea of using slabs.
Additional-builds:
During my almost two years as an artist and foreman I built countless, I mean literally countless, houses in Dol Amroth. Although maybe not the best demonstration of my skills, I also helped in the planning of one of the Burroughs of DA, namely New Town. Additionally, I spent some time in Moria building halls, quarters, roads and leading jobs. I worked on the mouth of the Endwash. My last build on the server was my help for the anniversary events theatre in 2018.
[Update] My last actual build was the ring for the MCME intro. (most of it)
[Update 2] I also had some experience with the animation plugin, using it for the curtains in the above-mentioned events theatre.
Your interests:
Most of my experience comes from the insane amount of time spent in Dol Amroth, both building houses and working in the sewers. I have a special love for terrain that originated from the terrainsmoothing and cliffs just outside DA. That being said, I don't find it difficult to adapt and learn new styles.
Your motivation:
During the next summer holidays, I'll have lots of free time again. As a modeler and texturer I have a great understanding of the block palet an artist has to work with. In addition to my work behind the scenes as a texturer I would also get helping again on the map. My passion for building I once had, although put on halt because of schoolwork, hasn't disappeared.
For this reason I would like to reapply for artist and get back to building the 1st July.
